My nerdy brother has a great job, earns lots of money, and has a large amount of savings. I am unemployed and in debt. He has long accused me of being a lazy good-for-noth'n alcoholic gambler.
While what he says is mostly true I feel that as my brother he is morally obligated to help me financially through any rough times. I ask him to give me money but he refuses!
What can I say that will get him to share his money with me? Please advise ASAP because my friends have planned a shoe-shopping weekend to New York and I'd really like to go.
